Can you really order flowers to Vietnam from another country?

Yes, but you need a florist experienced with international orders. When you're abroad (US, EU, Australia, Japan, Korea), you can't order from a regular US flower shop—they don't have access to fresh imported stock in Vietnam. Instead, contact a Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City florist directly via WhatsApp, email, or their website. We accept international payment (bank transfer, Wise, credit card) and send a real photo of your bouquet before delivery. This takes 1–2 days to arrange, so plan ahead if the date matters.

We source Ecuador roses, Dutch tulips, peonies, and hydrangeas—flowers that survive Hanoi's heat and humidity. Local alternatives (chrysanthemums, carnations) are cheaper but wilt faster in tropical conditions.

How much does it actually cost to send flowers to Vietnam?

Prices depend on flower type, size, and complexity. View our full price list for exact costs in Vietnamese Dong and USD.

Occasion	Flower Type	Who It Fits	Why It Works
Birthday	Mixed imported roses + greenery	Friends, partners, colleagues	Bright, lasts 7–10 days in AC
Anniversary	High-stem red/pink roses	Spouses, long-term partners	Classic, symbolizes commitment
Tet (Lunar New Year)	Peach blossoms, kumquat branches	Family, clients, hosts	Cultural; auspicious symbols
Funeral	White chrysanthemums, lilies	Bereaved family	Respectful; traditional in Vietnam
Grand opening	Tropical mixed bouquet	Business partners, shop owners	Festive; lasts through events
Proposal	Premium red roses + premium box	Fiancé/partner	Romantic; photo-worthy

Imported flowers cost more than local blooms but last longer in heat. Budget-conscious? Ask about seasonal Vietnamese flowers; they're fresher locally but wilt faster.

What should you write on the card when sending flowers in Vietnam?

Keep messages brief, warm, and culturally appropriate. Vietnamese recipients appreciate heartfelt simplicity. For birthdays, write: "Chúc mừng sinh nhật! Mong bạn luôn vui và khỏe mạnh" (Happy birthday! Wishing you joy and health). For anniversaries, try: "Chúc mừng ngày kỉ niệm. Yêu em!" (Happy anniversary. Love you!).

For business or formal settings, keep it short: "Cảm ơn sự tin tưởng của quý công ty" (Thank you for your trust). English and Japanese cards are also available—tell us when you order.

Avoid: references to funerals unless appropriate, odd numbers (except 1 and 3), and yellow flowers for elders (associated with infidelity in older traditions).

Where in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City can we deliver?

Hanoi (inner districts): Same-day delivery within ~2 hours to Tay Ho, Hoan Kiem, Ba Dinh, Dong Da, Cau Giay, and surrounding inner ring. Visit our Tay Ho location or Hoan Kiem studio for walk-in consultations.

Outer Hanoi & Suburbs: Standard next-day delivery (higher fee).

Ho Chi Minh City: Same-day delivery; allows more time than Hanoi due to city size.

International: If sending from Europe, US, Japan, or Korea, order online or WhatsApp with full recipient address (including district, street, ward). Provide a backup phone number—our riders call before arrival.

Addresses without GPS coordinates (old buildings, rural areas) add 30–60 minutes. Always confirm the exact address with your recipient in advance.

What flowers actually survive Hanoi's heat?

Hanoi humidity (80%+) and summer heat (35°C+) kill delicate blooms fast. Here's what holds up:

• Ecuador roses: Last 7–10 days in cool AC; fade in direct heat.
• Dutch tulips: Wilt in 3–4 days without refrigeration; best for AC'd offices/homes.
• Peonies: Robust; last 8–12 days; rare and more expensive.
• Hydrangeas: Surprisingly hardy; 10–14 days even in humid rooms.
• Orchids: Last weeks; live in heat; ideal for tropical homes.
• Carnations: Local; last 5–7 days; affordable; less photogenic.
• Chrysanthemums: Funeral standard; wilt in heat faster than imported types.

Pro tip: If delivering to a non-AC'd home or outdoor event, choose hydrangeas or orchids. If it's an office or air-conditioned restaurant, imported roses work beautifully.

We can also suggest the best flowers for your specific recipient location when you order.

How does international payment work when ordering from abroad?

We accept:

• Bank transfer (Hanoi-based account; we'll provide details)
• Wise (fast, low fees for international transfers)
• Credit card (Visa, Mastercard via payment gateway)
• PayPal (if available on your region)

Payment is collected before we arrange the flowers. Once confirmed, we source blooms, design the bouquet, photograph it, and send the image within 24 hours. You approve, then we deliver same-day (Hanoi/HCMC) or arrange your requested date.

No hidden fees. The price you see is the price you pay.

What to check before you buy

1. Recipient's full address – Include district, street, ward, building name, apartment number, and a working phone.
2. Delivery date & time – Specify if you want morning, afternoon, or flexible timing.
3. Recipient's flower preferences – Ask indirectly; some Vietnamese elders dislike chrysanthemums (funeral flowers).
4. Occasion sensitivity – Yellow flowers for elders are culturally risky; red is safer for romance.
5. AC availability – Imported flowers last longer indoors; heat-prone locations need hardy types.
6. Card message language – Vietnamese, English, Japanese, or Korean?
7. Backup phone – Provide yours and the recipient's so riders can confirm arrival.

FAQ

How long do imported flowers last in Vietnam's heat?

Ecuador roses last 7–10 days in air-conditioned spaces; hydrangeas last 10–14 days. In unair-conditioned rooms above 30°C, expect 3–5 days. Orchids and hardy tropical blooms tolerate heat better than delicate tulips or peonies.

Can I order flowers to Vietnam if I don't speak Vietnamese?

Yes. Contact us in English via WhatsApp, email, or our website. We handle the entire process—sourcing, design, Vietnamese-language cards (if you want them), and delivery confirmation with a photo.

What if the recipient isn't home for delivery?

Provide a backup phone number. Our riders call 15 minutes before arrival. If the recipient is unavailable, we can leave flowers with a trusted neighbor (if you authorize it) or reschedule. We always photograph the delivery or final placement.

Are there flowers I should *avoid* sending in Vietnam?

Yes. White or yellow chrysanthemums are funeral flowers—avoid unless appropriate. Yellow flowers for elders suggest infidelity in older beliefs. Odd numbers (except 1, 3, 7) are unlucky. Even numbers (4, 6, 8) are safer. Ask us if unsure.

How do I know the flowers are actually fresh when they arrive?

We photograph every bouquet inside our studio before dispatch and email you the image. You can compare it to what the recipient sees. If there's any damage during delivery, we document it and offer a replacement or refund.

What's the difference between ordering online and calling WhatsApp?

Both work. WhatsApp is faster for custom requests, last-minute orders, and clarifying details in real-time. Our website is best for browsing prices and occasions. Either way, you get a photo before delivery and Vietnamese/English card messaging.
